The Whittier Historical Society has partnered with Jacob Caputo, creator of the Haunted Whittier: Ghosts, Myths & Legends Tours, to create this one of a kind, immersive experience where guests explore the blackened halls of the Whittier Museum while recounting very real local stories of ghosts, hauntings and unexplained events.  The May 3rd ghost tour will pay tribute to legendary paranormal investigators Ed and Loraine Warren.  Three tour times available:  6:00, 7:30, and 9:00 pm.  See the Museum Ghost Tour event page for more information and tickets.  Get your tickets early - this event always sells out!

Founders Day is a celebration of the founding of Whittier in May 1887.  You will find non-profit booths, food, entertainment, old cars, activities for kids and lots of family fun.  Founders Day is free!
